Use based skill leveling

[Thrallking]

I know it would be harder than hell, maybe impossible, but I love the idea that skills get better by using them, not at arbitrary "level" points. Oblivion had the right idea, but Bethesda back-slid with Fallout 3, in my opinion. Maybe gaining levels would do nothing more than open up perks, but I could live with that. :biggrin: I saw a file that allowed 3 or 4 skills to gain up to 10 points this way, wouldn't it be possible for ALL skills to level this way, up to 100?

 

Anyway, that's my request. Thank you fro any replies. :thanks:

First of all, it's not Fallout without SPECIAL.

 

But if you insist on not playing Fallout :) this mod already exists:

Too bad they're still beta, might be really buggy. I do not think those are what the person is looking for though, it doesn't give you skills for individual stuff when using them. For example using 10mm over time will slowly increase skill for that particular weapon only. So far such a mod haven't been done in Fallout 3.

Well, I play every game individually, so it not being true to Fallout doesn't bother me. What I feel is important is how each one plays. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Fallout 3!! I have several hundred hours on it.

 

Thank you, mod #3155 is indeed what I was looking for. I haven't installed it yet ( I have modded myself out of several favored characters) but yes, that is it.
